‘So You
Think You Are Living’ is a blog dedicated to a very simple but complicated
word, LIFE. Two years back, I started with this blog as an idea to inspire
myself and live a worthwhile life. I was never aware that we have blog stats
and my blog was a public entity, as I am not a techie. But it helped me to
explore and learn many things.
Few lines of
a poem, Stream Of Life by Rabindranath Tagore
The same stream of life that runs through
my veins night and day
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures.
It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
in numberless blades of grass
and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth
and of death, in ebb and in flow.
I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life.
And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures.
It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
in numberless blades of grass
and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers.
It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth
and of death, in ebb and in flow.
I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life.
And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment
From a woman
of leisure for some and a bored housewife for many, this blog opened doors for
me to write for many different streams of writing – product portfolio,
corporate newsletters, magazines and a book. People who are close to me know
that I had nobody to vent out my thoughts, when a laptop screen was more
comfortable than a mother’s lap. It was a journey of fun, fiction, inspiration,
emotion and transformation.
It connected
me to many people from different parts of the globe and I could see things from
a bigger platform. Sometimes conversing with mind and at times with my heart,
my life was moving or flowing through the posts of this blog. I must confess my
blog helped me to ‘move on’ in my life and does not stop for ‘no reasons’!
It has
thought me that when life is moving in a forward direction, you will always
appreciate the route taken. A journey is covered when you move forward and look
back to cherish some of the most fantabulous moments.
Today, it is
Monday and let us start this week with a wonderful thought, ‘Life has been so
kind to us and let us be kind to Life as well’. Live it, Love it.
Let it flow
like a river so that you can feel the freshness of each milestone that you
accomplish.
Happy
WeekendJ
